Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I was a professor of social work for 23 years, and I continue to supervise social workers toward their clinical licensure. I have guided at least 40 social workers in 3 states in this way, and so I am sometimes considered the “therapist’s therapist.” During my activities in teaching and supervision, I continued to provide therapy to clients with various concerns, so that I continually learned and became current in many approaches and techniques. I have taught, published, and presented at conferences a great deal in the areas of grief and bereavement as well as mental health in the health care field, especially that of veterinary professionals. I have also participated in and published about the impact and mental health concerns during and after natural disasters, including the current pandemic and several hurricanes. As a therapist, I am interested in the mental health of healthcare professionals of all stripes, as well as their significant others. I have worked in these environments, and I understand the stressors which lead to burnout, compassion fatigue, and breakdown in relationships.
So if you are looking for a mature therapist who can empathically respond to your unique situation, I would love to meet you.

Many people wonder whether online therapy truly makes a difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating major life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One of the clearest advantages is the flexibility it provides – clients can meet with a therapist in the format that fits their needs, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility often makes it easier to include therapy in a busy routine.
Therapists offering online care are licensed professionals, and if a different fit is desired, clients are able to switch therapists at any time. For many people, the combination of demonstrated effectiveness and practical convenience makes online therapy a valuable option.
